We exploited
the novel microstructure of paper and developed nanostructured paper
and textile as a platform for a wide range of energy and environmental
device applications, including ultracapacitors, batteries, water
filtration, microbial fuel cells and printed electronics. The excellent
union of nanomaterials such as carbon nanotubes and silver nanowires
with paper and textile lead to the success for emerging devices with
outstanding performances. We are also interested in the understanding
of the fundamental interactions between nanoscale materials such as
carbon nanotube and bionanowires with paper and textile fibers.
